Explanation
An 'at-risk' or 'pre-recording disbursement' closing occurs when funds are disbursed before recording is confirmed. If a higher-priority instrument is recorded in the gap between disbursement and recording, the transaction could be impaired. Best practice is to wait until recording is confirmed before disbursing.
